Thanks for such a quick response, dejan555.
I must have missed mplayer listed in the multimedia menu - but I was able to download from https://www.securehost.com/mirror/debian/pool/main/m/mplayer/. CowLog initially only gave the audio to AVI files, but it was resolved by removing a "-vo sdl" in the CowLog.kmdr file. Problem solved! (Of course - it only seems to be a problem when I'm involved ) My only issue now is that I don't seem to have all the codecs for mplayer to enable viewing of MOV files etc - might you recommend a codec solution for that in KDPup Lite, please?

EDIT: Well of course it was working! It just needed a bit of initial persistence with the MOV file rather keep deflecting to the AVI version. All Good!_________________Toowoomba Linux Community

Cheers again dejan555 -
at the risk of putting my feet in my mouth again, I wonder whether the wBar issue raised around page 6 of the thread was resolved for KDPUP and KDPUP-lite? I'm using lite and I cannot replicate the workaround steps suggested back then (wbon and dpupstartup files absent). I note that the config file in /root/.wbarstuff gets summarily wiped whenever wBar setup is executed - although apart from the accursed "Creampup" TTF reappearing as default text selection, all settings are otherwise retained. They just aren't implemented.
Could you please revist the issue? I'd really love to see Wbar working in Kdpup. I'm using the panel as a replacement at the moment, but still...

I also note that "Find" (ctrl-F) in Konqueror is not installed. Just a cutback of the overheads for the lite version, I wonder?

Hey Puppyt glad you figured out multimedia issues.
Regarding wbar, well - wbon fix should work as far as I know I will boot kdpup lite later and test, I changed so much thing on my kdpup install that I don't remember what was it like in the first place _________________Dpup 487 | Puppy Gallery | My photo gallery | mtPaint works

the tool does not create any menu entries but it does create an entry in /usr/share/applications

I seem to be having a problem with the startup folder. I put a link to keytouch and it does not run. Neither does a link to my calendar program rainlendar. But if I navigate to the startup folder and click the links they start right up _________________Dell D610 1.7M w/1024mb

I seem to be having a problem with my wireless card on my laptop. When I first booted my card was seen but upon rebooting it is not "on" nor seen. If I take it out and put it back in it stays on and is seen. It is a d-link and when I boot it is blinking but when the screen changes to the gui/kde it stops blinking(off?)._________________Dell D610 1.7M w/1024mb

Could not get youtube videos to play , flash plugins needed, downloaded and put in usr/bin/kde plugins or something like that but did not work ,the internet connection icon is not on the task bar when the connection is active.

Hi, dejan555, thank you for this puplet.
I know you aren't going to develop it,
but I hope you will help me with two small problems.

1. What is the password for root? When I try to use the Administration section in CUPS, I can not get there without a password.

2. I changed the WM with JWM, FluxBox and IceWM by tiping the name of WM after startx command, but I can't get back to the default kde WM. I try with "startx kde" command, but it starts one of the others previosly loaded WM.
